There Is So Fucking Much Going On This Weekend

posted by on April 6 at 15:00 PM

It seems like, as tour season starts revving up, there are always those nights where EVERYTHING IS GOING ON. They happen randomly, with no warning. Why is April 6th one of them? I don’t know. Anyhow, here’s my rundown of what looks good tonight (and tomorrow night, for good measure).

TONIGHT
Robyn Hitchcock w/ Sean Nelson and Johanna Kunin @ the Croc
The Robot Ate Me w/ Dennis Driscoll, Run Chico Run, and aheartlesssolution @ Atlas
Free (your ass) Hip Hop Fridays @ the Baltic Room (I’ve been wanting to check this out for a while. Anyone been?)
Andrew W.K., Flosstradamus, and Pretty Titty @ Sing Sing at Chop Suey (Eric’s all over this)
Holy Ghost Revival, the Pharmacy, Tulsa, and Shellshag @ the Comet (rumor is that there will be free drink tickets)
SunTzu Sound and Kid Hops @ Electric Avenue at CHAC Lower Level
The Hacks and the Snakebites @ the Funhouse
Coconut Coolouts & Ursula & the ONONOs @ the first Pho Bang! in two years at Chop Suey
JJ & Mofro @ Neumos (I actually don’t care, but Zwickel does)
Lightning Bolt w/ Bug Sized Mind, A Pack of Wolves, Teeth and Hair, and Shearing Pinx @ Vera (again, Grandy)

TOMORROW
The Blakes, the Willowz, and Shim @ the Sunset
Iceage Cobra w/ No More Stereo @ Atlas
Triumph of Lethargy blah blah w/ Feral Children, A Gun That Shoots Knives, and 1-2-1-2 @ the Comet (Eric on Feral Children and Triumph of Lethargy, 1-2-1-2’s Band Page)
Fitz of Depression w/ Steel Tigers of Death @ the Funhouse
Winning, Twin, Origami, Devin & Robin @ the S.S. Marie Antoinette
John Vanderslice & St. Vincent @ the Triple Door
The Cops, the Whore Moans, the Hands, Shake Some Action @ the High Dive
The Lights, the Snacks, the Transport Assembly @ Jules Maes

WHAT THE MOTHER FUCK?

Sometimes living in Seattle sucks really hard because you have to make so many goddamn choices. It makes me want to swear.

Tell me what I should go to!

I totally understand your plight cause I'm facing the same choices! I'm planning on the Robyn Hitchcock show tonight (and possibly the Brent Amaker free in-store at Easy Street West Seattle for pre-funk) and the Audioasis show at the High Dive (The Cops, Coho, Shake Some Action!, the Hands, the Whore Moans) on Saturday.

Then napping on Sunday.

Dammit, that was gonna be my shameless plug.
